We're now inside the transit area

We're waiting for the plane

We're going to have a bit of

a bit of a bite first and then we will head

over to the check in area

Having a bit of food before we board the plane

The plane leaves at 6.50. I think boarding time is 5.50 Still got 1 hour to kill at least

He's wearing slippers

I'm wearing shoes and pants

Evidently they are boarding already

It's a really small plane

That is the cockpit

And that is the toilet

Cockpit. Toilet

Just came from the arrival area

We've just reached the pitstop for today.

We've just arrived from our flight and we'll be heading down for a bit of rest before we

head off to Mulah tomorrow morning on another ferry

This is the Male fish market

One of the oldest tackle shops in Male

We're trying out the new cafe

This is Park House, our stay in Male for today before we head to Mulah tomorrow

We do have two separate beds

But I say separate...

We'll move this apart maybe later

Possibly. Probably. I hope so

It is sufficient. It's more than sufficient.

It has everything we need so far. Even has a TV. So it's all good.

The internet is extremely slow

Ah. It appears to have jammed as well. There we go.

How is the bed?

Ya the bed is quite hard

But it will be sufficient for one night I think

He's just noticed the TV.

And can we please separate the beds, thank you

It's almost midnight now, local time

Singapore time is about almost 3am

We're about to head to bed

Beds have been separated

And wake up early tomorrow morning

maybe about 6.30, 6.15

Have an early breakfast

Maybe if I'm lucky I'll get a few

drone flights around here

if not I can come back on Friday

and then we'll head to take a ferry, a 3 hour ride, to Mulah. So...

That 5 hour journey in the plane was quite long.

3 hour journey in the boat might be, might feel longer

But at least we'll be able to see what's happening, as opposed to the plane which was quite cramped

And we were in the aisle seats

Three by three

Right in the front as well, third row from the front. It was very noisy

So on the way back we'll see if we can change it up maybe sit at the back. See if it's quieter

We can get some rest as well. We'll be arriving in Singapore on Saturday at 4am

So... It's gonna be a long day for that one. So hopefully we can get some shuteye on the plane

So it's 6.15am now. 6.30. It's light out actually

There is a bit of light, quite a bit of light

So the brain is a bit confused with the change in time but the body is not

So we've had about 6 hours or slightly less of sleep

We were awoken by the simultaneous alarm clocks of all our phones

which seem to have synced up their clocks

So that was quite odd.

We're just gonna have a bit of breakfast once it's ready

Maybe have a proper shower before we head off

We've only got about one hour to get everything ready to leave. So...

So evidently this is neither one of ours. Just left here in the room. So...

This is our breakfast

Morning, it's 7.15 now we're having a bit of breakfast

In about 15 minutes we have to leave for the ferry

Then we head over to Mulah on a 3 hour ferry ride

We're heading to the jetty now which brings us to the ferry that will ferry us to Mulah

It's a busy morning for all Maldivians cause it's a work day today

So you can see the traffic is fairly heavy

So now we are at the harbour area. This is where we'll board the ferry to head over to Mulah

So, just have a look around

It's quite a pretty place, quite decent. The water is very clear

Boats don't seem too run down. Looks quite cool

Buzz buzz buzzzz [drone noises]

So the boat was delayed for about 45 minutes to fix the propellor. But

it's fixed now a bit early. About 20 minutes

I just got the drone up for a tiny bit before we had to leave

So now we're heading for the boat and onward to Mulah

So the ferry is going to leave in about 2 minutes officially

Then we'll have the 3 hour journey straight over to Mulah. Then we'll have a closer look there.

So we have a customised railing for Bazookas. Very friendly for fishermen

This is our room

Second floor from the top. It's actually the third floor

The one upstairs is just a roof terrace with a bit of shade

The sun is unbearably hot though

Not as bad as Tekong says Nigel

I feel that it is actually worse than Tekong

Power sockets... We have one there

One behind the bed here

We had to separate the beds

We?

And I believe that's all

Oh it's the salty fighter

With price tag some more!

Oh the salty fighter broke

That's not a good sign

Ok

So this is the jetty that is somewhat in front of our guesthouse

We have to walk just a bit, maybe about 1 minute, then we reach here

So, I probably won't be fishing too much right now

I've got a lot of gear to use, record and note down everything for you guys

So we're gonna check out the boat now

It looks pretty similar to what we'll be using tomorrow

So everything was a bit rushed today but

We are looking good

Water is exshept

Water is exceptionally clear

Blue waters

It's quite an amazing sight actually, to be honest

It literally is quite blue

It's a bit odd but it's quite cool

So this is the type of boat that we're using tomorrow

Very similar to this

A lot of parrot fish

Is it? You saw is it?

er yea

We saw Parrotfish. Nigel saw Parrotfish

Nigel just crossed lines with this guy and once Nigel untangled his line

he caught a fish. Tiny little black fish I'm not sure what it is

Definitely a coral species

Nigel using his rubber right now. I'm using a crankbait

Not much luck with the normal baits

Our bait presentation is actually not too bad

I wouldn't say it's the best in the world but it's not too bad

The water is pretty clear so bait presentation is an important thing

We're just not getting the distance that we want

Nigel had a miss just now. A red snapper I believe

One of the red snappers. A Red Bass

Tail just got bitten off. Tail got bitten off

What fish was it?

No idea what fish it was

So looks like we're getting results now

We didn't have much luck with our lures

So now maybe we'll move to rubbers

So we just came back from fishing

One was at the jetty and the other was at the beach through a hidden path

that one of Ali's friends brought us to

The mosquitoes there were insane

I mean they were actually swarming around me and just biting nonstop.

That was insane

Oh and then there were the multiple incidents where the crows kept attacking my drone

I really don't know why but I managed to scare them off everytime

So the fish weren't really biting

Nigel managed to get a garfish

and 1 other fish

I forgot what it was

That was at the second spot that Ali's friend brought us to

So that was much better but the waves were quite interesting

They just leapt over the sand beach

and stole quite a few slippers

But it returned them after a while

So tonight at about 8pm Ali's friend has invited us to join him

fishing at a spot where there are supposedly quite a few GTs

So we will try that out tonight

We're gonna catch the sunset now

There is little to no traffic on the Mulah island

There are a few cars and motorbikes though

Just straight down this road is the harbour area

This will be our boat tomorrow

We just came back from taking photos of the sunset. Videos of the sunset

Playing with the drone there

Hopefully you like that small bit

This is the community broadcast

They are watching Maldivian Idol tonight

So it's on a projector screen and they have all the seats here

Now we are going to try out night fishing

We just saw three stingrays swimming around here

There is no issue with catching them but most of the locals

don't eat stingray and they do not have sambal

So Nigel just caught a small baby GT while I was setting up my drone

So that's quite cool

Fwah. Sambal Kangkong ah?

Is it Kangkong?

Alright man!

Yea my favourite

Singaporeans eat a lot of Kangkong

A lot of Thai people they do rice and Kangkong - enough.

Ya man

Bro do you accept US dollars?

Yes

So we've just come back from having dinner

It's about almost 10 o'clock right now local time

For Singapore time it's almost 1AM

We're gonna fish tomorrow from about 5.30 in the morning

to about 8.30

And then we'll head back, have a bit of breakfast

And just look around before we head off again in the evening at about maybe...

I'm not sure what time actually...

Before we head out in the evening again

for another spot of fishing

So right now we're just trying to get all our tackle ready for tomorrow

Hopefully we get some big fish

No idea what Shawn is setting up at the window

Seems like we're holed up fighting some zombie resistance
